It is an invasion of privacy. And these methods of control and survalliance are stupid, rfid..gps..cameras in london. I just wish big government would leave everyone alone.

this is stupid. I already have gps in my cell, and ususally enable it when in cabs (telenav or google maps). They can fight this, but can't fight that we'll all have networked devices with GPS in them soon, which can send info to any web service we choose. They should get on top of things and enable these devices and provide me a better user experience. Otherwise, it's going to come to them from a third-party.

This has NOTHING to do with them ripping you off. They are the ones getting ripped off. This has to do with them paying thousands that they shouldn't have to, and them being able to be tracked by the TLC, regardless if they own their cab or not.
